Benjamin Howes and Patrick Richwood are back with Season 2 of The Working Actor NYC Podcast — and they’re starting 2026 with an honest conversation about goals, momentum, and what’s actually changing in the acting industry.

In this episode, they talk about:

• Why traditional goal-setting doesn’t always serve actors
• The difference between chasing moments and building momentum
• Industry shifts they’re already noticing in 2026
• How working actors can orient themselves without burning out or clinging to outdated ideas

This isn’t about resolutions or hype. It’s about clarity, adaptability, and staying awake to the work as it evolves.

Whether you’re resetting after a tough year or looking ahead with intention, this episode is about starting the season grounded, curious, and connected.
